Hello guys, I think we all need to run a Bitcoin node, If you own Bitcoin, the safest way to know it’s really yours is to run your own node with software like Bitcoin Core. Wallet apps and devices might just show numbers, but that doesn’t guarantee you actually hold Bitcoin. Unlike gold, which became hard to trust because of fakes, Bitcoin is easy to check and you can verify it yourself. That's One of the advantages of Bitcoin guys, Setting up a node is simple, doesn’t need to run all the time, and works smoothly with Sparrow Wallet. Always remember: don’t trust, verify.
How exactly they gonna fake?
There are wallets that are open source and allow you to change RPC to your trusted full node RPC providers. You can check the connection yourself and made sure you're connecting to that RPC.
You can even query it if you want
to just to make sure the latest block is the same as in the blockchain explorers out there.
Unless you're using sketchy wallet you will be fine. But I agree that we should run full node if we like.
